i'm sure it's her naptime. children should be seen and not heard. but i would rather they not be seen or heard!

Heh. My stepmom is trying, but the kid won't doze. My toddler finally yelled himself to sleep (he hates napping) in the other room, so I can't go watch TV in there, either. He's a terrible handicapper. Last year he picked Archarcharch to win.

There's a wicked looking thunderstorm cell moving across southern Indiana, looking like it's making a beeline for Louisville. Maybe 2 hours out. It's so isolated it almost looks like an anomaly. Hopefully it'll break up soon.

I was really impressed with the race Fort Larned ran.

I agree. He prompted the pace the whole way and it took a track record to beat him.

He'll probably win after I say this but how is a horse like the 6 shorter than the 10?

Did I just read they're evacuating the infield because of the severe weather? I reckon they don't want another situation like what happened at that concert in Indiana last year.

Shoot, it stormed like a motherf-er in the minutes before the Oaks back in 2008 and CD didn't evacuate a soul.
